    Not really. Those airbags deploy with so much force that they would just blow those A pillars off of there.

    Those first couple pictures with the Morel's is exactly what Id love to do with mine. But that is WAY beyond anything I could ever do or afford.

    I'm sure it would affect the side curtain air bags. With weight like that on the a-pillars, those things are going to be bolted/screwed in. I would just hope the air bag doesnt send that speaker through your face.

    The last pic looks like **** IMO. The first few look magnificent, something similar to what i want to do with mine, unfortunately for me it will look more out of place since my a-pillars arent so large on the bottom :(

    Just out of curiosity, how much would it cost? Out here it would not be a question of cost but rather lack of ability :).

    Really depends on your location. I would say, on average $150 per panel. And if you want it aimed exactly within a couple degrees, its going to get more expensive as it gets harder.

    It generally runs $300 a pair out here too. Steve Cook in Alabama would be the guy I'd hire to do it. He uses lead shot. In his fiberglass. The kick panels on his truck weigh about 45 pounds!!

    The CRV is too small. This thing is twice the size.



    Ive already got one. My Alpine H700 is a 8 channel.



    Yeah I agree. I mean this looks just like an BMW:

    2010.ford.mustang.20262910-E.jpg

    And who doesnt automatically think of a Mercedes when you see this:

    2010.ford.f-150.20284374-E.jpg

    And then this. I mean Volkswagen should sue Ford for stealing their designs. This looks identical to a Jetta:

    2010.ford.flex.20302157-E.jpg

    Just look at how unoriginal this is:

    2008.ford.f-250%20super%20duty.20110180-E.jpg

    Im always mistaking these for a Toyota Rav4:

    2010.ford.expedition.20304911-E.jpg

    {thus ends my smart **** response} :D



    Took me a while but I finally came around John. Youve been preaching the virtues of Ford goodness for years. I dont really have a favorite brand but if I had to pick it would be Ford. Ive owned more Fords (3) than any other make and Im really impressed with their current direction. Id put their build quality and design up against anybodys and I love their balls. Them telling Obama to stick his bail out money up his **** - hell thats reason enough alone to only buy Fords for the rest of my life.
    Nice ride..good taste and less filling..
